Thistle and Spire​

Thistle and Spire is an independent New York lingerie label founded in 2015 by Fashion Institute of Technology classmates Maggie Bacon and Lily Chen. Its signature look combines strappy cage detailing, geometric appliqué and sheer stretch mesh across bralettes, briefs, garter belts, bodysuits and sleepwear, with extended sizing on many styles. The brand is female-founded and operates without outside investors, selling direct from its own site plus wholesale partners, and casts body-diverse and LGBTQ+ models in its campaigns instead of conventional lingerie imagery.
